Speaker 1: Hey the folks, it is Monday, June eighth, and Love Island season eight, episode five is in the books and Corbyn remains of the talk of the town.
00:00:13
Speaker 2: And with that, welcome to this episode of Amy and TJ. I mentioned Corbin Rose, but always like to ask. First impression takeaway reaction to what episode.
00:00:24
Speaker 3: Five was, Well, it was a slow roll to the inevitable. We all knew Sean was going to be gone, or at least we thought he was almost certainly at the end it was either going to be him or Zach, and ain't no way Zac's leaving. So yes, I thought we had. The big headline obviously, is that they had their first recoupling and their first island dump of the season, and Sean, the cop who quit his job to find love, is now going back home single and unemployed.
00:00:57
Speaker 2: Apparently. Yes, so look, we sat up. We we at some point got we got bored because they look bored. There were times this is a weird kind of dragging on type of episode. I just I don't know if they needed to get to something else and they just need to stretch one out here. But it was a lot of sitting around.
00:01:17
Speaker 3: I think a lot of sitting around and we were laughing because it got to the point where they had a meditating class and that made me laugh and I just thought, Wow, they must really be bored because ANNIAI let it and we love not Anaya. She's very sweet, but not I don't think trained in guiding, yoga or meditating classes in any way shape or form.
00:01:39
Speaker 2: That's fine, you know what, maybe maybe robes they listened and they stopped putting them in kissing situations. Maybe, and then they did this to go see what you get when.
00:01:48
Speaker 3: We don't get at see, I would argue, you can still have fun games that shake things up and bring out things that people don't want others to hear, and all that good stuff that stirs the pot without having it end up in a massive switt spit swapping makeout session. You can go somewhere in between the two. We could have a game. I like a game, okay, But the conversations that were going on were oh so fascinating. What do you think of mel and Beatrice? They made up, but a lot of backhanded compliments flying around.
00:02:22
Speaker 2: I don't get that the way girls do. I don't know how you will have conversations so.
00:02:28
Speaker 3: You have Mel telling Beatrice that I'm so jealous of you because I'm not really athletic. You know, you're an athlete, so the boys will like you because you can compete with them. And then she said boys get bored with just pretty, because you know she would know if you're just pretty. That's so boring.
00:02:47
Speaker 2: You took it that way. I listened to that entire conversation. Didn't think anything of it.
00:02:50
Speaker 3: I did. And then I heard Beatrice tell Mel that it's a good thing you're so sensitive because my parents wouldn't let me cry with all the surgeries. But it's a good thing you're in touch with your sensitive side, which was referring to her absolute meltdowns. So that was also a backhanded complix.
00:03:10
Speaker 2: So the whole time, I'm looking at these two women, and I'm listening to these two women thinking, Wow, this is nice. I'm glad they talked it out. You're hearing this is just ready for more war.
00:03:19
Speaker 3: Yes, well, they're fake being nice to each other, and they found a way to compliment one another, which actually was a negative or at least a pat on their own back. So I'm so jealous of you that you're not really athletic. Then Beatrice goes into how she doesn't fit into a feminine role. Her parents wouldn't let her cry. But it's a good thing you're sensitive, Mel. And then Mel says, it's a good thing you're athletic because boys just get bored with pretty.
00:03:41
Speaker 2: I didn't, Okay, I'm not gonna I listened to the whole thing. I was sitting there with you once again, between you two, going like, what the hell is happening? And I thought everything was chill, and y'all were telling me the whole time.
00:03:53
Speaker 3: Ah, you got to read between the lines with us women. How about Bryce? Bryce? Probably for me, the highlight of episode five was Bryce's Zoolander moment. Do you know what I'm referring to.
00:04:07
Speaker 2: But at the end, when he was on the job of.
00:04:08
Speaker 3: Block No, Bryce was just you know, opening up. He was being vulnerable. He and Trinity were really just having a heart to heart and he finally admitted to Trinity into the world that he got bullied. He got bullied in middle school because because he's really, really, really good looking. It was just really hard.
00:04:28
Speaker 2: It was a fun story. I don't mean, I don't you know. It goes in line with him and him slowly becoming one of my favorites on the show, and didn't think he would after the episode one. This always happens to us, folks. We can't stand at the beginning, we end up loving him es Orsa and so he's growing on me. So he told a really silly story. I thought it was if that was meaningful to him and his experience at the time. He doesn't know how it came off. He doesn't know how he just sounded to.
00:04:54
Speaker 3: The world no, and it's hilarious. He's a male model, and I think a fairly successful male model, and he's talking about how he was bullied in middle school because the hottest girl in the school school, who was a year older, liked him and that made all the boys in his grade hate him. And honestly, at everyone at home was just dying laughing like wow, it must have been so hard to be so hot, Like what does one do with that act? But that's why it was fair funny, because he was being heartfelt, like he was being genuine and in his defense, that's the hardship he knows. He doesn't know what it's like to be ignored or no one cares what you look like or cares if you exist. He and I get it. That was his trauma in his world, in his bubble, and then Trinity again, I think it is a lovely person, responds in a knowing way, basically, yeah, I know, I'm just naturally really skinny, which that also made me laugh really hard because she didn't mean anything by it, but everyone at home who struggles with Wade and probably trying not to eat the popcorn that we were showing down while watching, is thinking, like, really, should we need to feel sorry for you because you're just naturally really skinny. It was hilarious. They were both sweet kids who didn't recognize how crazy that sounds to the rest.
00:06:14
Speaker 2: Of the world. But it's also indicative of the experience that they've had so far. Absolutely, we haven't lived a lot of life. They don't have a lot of experience and doing a lot of stuff. The struggles are the ones that they are explaining.
00:06:30
Speaker 3: And like they obviously have just always been kind of really hot, So I mean, hot people have problems too. That was what I learned from this, all right, So we had sincere we were trying to come up with it. Did we ever come up with? He keeps coming up with hilarious analogies. First the fish one that got him into trouble. Keep talking, okay, so he's comparing. And one he did a couple of days ago, which got him in a lot of hot water. A lot of women jumped on this one where he described catching fish as an analogy to basically catching women, saying, you can catch one, it's beautiful, you keep it, you put it in your freezer, and then you can catch another beautiful one, and they can both be beautiful, and they can both be in your freezer. And there's nothing wrong with that.
00:07:20
Speaker 2: Two fishes. I like it.
00:07:21
Speaker 3: Two fishes. So that was his analogy with you know, dating on Love Island and catching fish. And then he made another one.
00:07:28
Speaker 2: That the one you're like, you like a loh, we remember one just a little bit ago. I can not forget that one. But the one you're talking about had to do with rain and mud. He said it at the end, he said it on the couch, and after he said it, they actually said, wow with the metaphors. Huh yeah. But this one was he said, when you pray for rain, he also got to deal with the mud.
00:07:49
Speaker 3: So we just burst out laughing. He also talks because he likes to use his hands a lot. He also talked about how you know, Sincere, Heat and mel were sometimes in the same book, but they're just on different chapters, so we just start laughing. Like he constantly speaks in metaphors, so I'm waiting for them.
00:08:05
Speaker 2: The other one you forgot. The other one from school is like, you're the fastest guy.
00:08:09
Speaker 3: Oh cool, right, he was. He was comparing being on Love Island to when when the bombshell Gordon came in. He said, you know when you're like the fastest, you know, hottest guy on the track team, and then someone comes in and is faster than you, We're like, Wow, another brilliant metaphor. He's loaded. Just wait for it watching tonight basically, I'm here for it. I'm going to keep listening for the multiple metaphors coming out of since We should do.
00:08:32
Speaker 2: We should do a drinking game. That's a legit. Yeah, a metaphor drinking game with Sincere is not a bad idea.
00:08:37
Speaker 3: He has at least two or three per episode from what I've been gathering, that's not a bad idea. It's been fun. It's been fun. And then of course there was the big plot twist. We knew that the women early on were gonna get to pick, so that meant that we knew a guy was going to go home or at least be on the chopping block, and we knew the women had all the power. So now you get to see how everybody tries to up their game and see if they've got a girl who's gonna pick them. All of that, but then they do a plot twist and the new guy, the bombshell Corbyn gets to pick first, and Corbyn knows, but no one else. And so what do you make of Corbyn? What do you what's your takeaway from him?
00:09:14
Speaker 2: I was hoping he was just nervous in the first episode he was in and he would eventually have more to offer. He's maybe he's warming up. He's not there yet, but I need him to get a little a little chattier. I need him to uh, to show me a little more. I need him because right now, look, we could say what he's been talked about. His name is it as we said here Robes, is it still number one?
00:09:36
Speaker 3: Old number one. It's above way above the Knicks, It's above California, it's above Trump heading out of that interview at NBC with Kristen Welker. I mean, he is at the top of all trending news stories on X right now it is Corbyn. And what are they saying about Corbin?
00:09:54
Speaker 2: They don't think he's There's a lot going on upstairs, there are Look, the funny one that I saw was someone suggesting that he doesn't ever put together full sentences, like he'll just say things like your eyes I just fuck. And once they pointed it out, I was laughing.
00:10:16
Speaker 3: Now you're like waiting for him to complete one sentence and you're still waiting.
00:10:20
Speaker 2: Well, look, they're not. He's not okay. He's not being talked about as the most brilliant person in the villa right now. No, that's fine, but he can warm up and it's no. Maybe he's not a good conversation list.
00:10:35
Speaker 3: You're right, maybe he's nervous. He does seem to be operating out of one playbook though, because he was asking kept trying to get more kisses, like we need another kissing scene. So he's you know, playing cute with Kenzie, saying I really need to kind of remember what our kiss was like, maybe you can refresh my memory. So she jumps in and kisses him, and then he tries the same thing with Kita. Got to get props to Cada, she refused. She's like, did you just are you just doing out with all the girls, And she thought maybe that might help her chance of him picking her, because ultimately he did get to pick, but her hard to get did not work out well for her. In fact, Kenzie Kenzie was his first choice. We knew it was between Kensi and Kada, and at the end I thought he was going to go with Kada.
00:11:18
Speaker 2: She gave him a cold enough shoulder. He seemed to not be that interested in getting to know what you have to offer. On the inside, he is very much and has made clear how into physically he is everybody right now. So Kaita gave him a cold shoulder. I think he felt. I think he got it, and I think he knows she's got it. You know, she made it clear. I got Zach right now we're coupled up. I'm open to conversations, but she made pretty clear what she wanted.
00:11:47
Speaker 3: She thought, hard to get my work, though.
00:11:50
Speaker 2: I don't know about that. She I don't know, you know what she was growing on me when she said to him. You know what, man, let's just slow down for a second. Don't just want to dot That was a good way to go. I said, Okay, she's grown on me. Then she went into the confessional and did some old sounding.
00:12:05
Speaker 3: I play hard to guess. Maybe that'll work in my benefit, Yain. It's like all strategy, all strategy. It wasn't just her, you know, being an adult about it. No, not at all. But when we come back, we are going to tell you who the new couples are, what we think of them, and all Sean went home. We welcome back everyone to our Love Island, episode five edition of Amy and DJ. And look, we've got the new couples. Most of them are pretty much the same as they were before. The only new couple we have right now is Corbyn and Kenzie. Correct.
00:12:48
Speaker 2: You know that was a dramas show last night. Yeah, and that's okay. At the end, there was no mystery about it.
00:12:54
Speaker 3: It was not a nail biter. Never did I think that Trinity except for maybe one split second by the way she was building up. But like obviously she and Bryce were hitting it off, so why would she make a left turn and go for Sean. It didn't make a lot of sense. But I wonder I always want to do the producers help them write that so that it is she gave just enough of an opening that she could have been talking about Sean like new conversations more like it made it seem like I was like, no, she wouldn't possibly throw Bryce to the current.
00:13:26
Speaker 2: That seemed like that had could That's the hand of a writer.
00:13:29
Speaker 3: That seemed like producers got involved.
00:13:31
Speaker 2: Because she said a couple of lines. Even it looked like Bryce was confused.
00:13:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was like, wait, who is she talking about?
00:13:36
Speaker 2: Yeah? So, and fine, it's not the end of the world. But are they allowed because so many of them they seem to have the exact same tone. Yes, but they also seem to go the exact same length, they follow the same art. Yeah, maybe they give them somewhat instructions. But if someone allowed to say, oh, you pick who you want and just get up. Come on, y'all know I'm about to y'all know I'm about to kick pick my boys act, get on over his act and just leave it.
00:14:00
Speaker 3: And obviously they know their order. So when you're the last one, they always wanted to be dramatic, So I'm wondering if they give you some just some helpful suggestions on how to craft your I chose this boy to couple up with because also okay, So here are the couples Corbyn and Kenzie, Anaya and Casey, Melanie and Sincere, Kada and Zach, Beatrice, Beatrice and Gabrielle, Trinity and Bryce. Hands down your favorite. I think we all agree in this house favorite couple. Oh yeah, still Anny in case Anaya in Casey trying.
00:14:36
Speaker 2: Somebody was starting to grow on me. I like Bryce and Trinity. I do too, I like more so because of Bryce, like he's growing on Trinity is cool. Cada and Zach, they kind of makes it. Melanie and Sincere, I think.
00:14:53
Speaker 3: They're on again. I mean, they have had some drama already, but they seem to be back in good spirits together, happy to be with one another.
00:15:02
Speaker 2: She had a bad episode, okay, off that couple and his kindergarten energy is.
00:15:09
Speaker 3: With the metaphors de jure. I can't wait to hear what we're gonna hear tonight. But I also thought it was funny because look, maybe it's not funny. But as Sean was leaving, I saw some people online kind of throwing Kenzie some shade because her big thing to him was I'm really gonna miss your food, like girl, come on like. But he did make heart shaped eggs for her and she seemed to really, really really like them.
00:15:33
Speaker 2: But in the conversation at the end, she did seem like she was, you know what, she seemed like she knew she was responsible for him leaving versus because they didn't. They didn't seem to have a heads up that somebody was going home.
00:15:42
Speaker 3: No, And but she did say that she was going to pick Corbyn, that she was not going to pick Sean. That was the big that was the only question mark if it had just been in the hands of the women, if they hadn't given the power to Corbyn to stay like they basically producers guaranteed he got to stay by giving him the first choice. But if Kenzy had gotten to pick, that was the only big question mark. What's she going to pick Sean or what's she going to pick Corbyn? And she claims that she was going to pick Corbyn.
00:16:09
Speaker 2: But they made sure, didn't they that the that the new dude that everybody well had loved when before he.
00:16:16
Speaker 3: Started to talk, Well, what they know what they're doing because he's the number one trend. It's interesting you would think Sean would be the number one trend because he got kicked off, but no, the number one trend is Corbyn. Look, he might, we might. You might be able to turn your TV down, the volume down and just look. And he's nice to look at and so that might be a lot of what the draw is I'm given them.
00:16:37
Speaker 2: But the draw of the conversation, at least around him is not having to do and I'm shocked. It's not about how good he looks.
00:16:44
Speaker 3: It's about how he just.
00:16:46
Speaker 2: Hasn't He hasn't had a lot to say yet. We don't know him well yet. I'm sure he'll open up.
00:16:49
Speaker 3: He's a man of few words, man of few sentences, at least complete ones. But you know what, there is more time because we get another episode tonight, the oh yeah, three new bombshells. We should point that out. It's two women and one guy, right, yes, yes, I believe that's what it is. And of course they always flipped this around. Not sure when the next recoupling will be, but certainly they do this, They flip it so this next time the men will be the ones choosing, and so the women will have to be fighting for their other half to choose them. So they always keep it interesting.
00:17:24
Speaker 2: How do bomb shows usually do?
00:17:26
Speaker 3: It depends some of them. It's either they have a meteoric rise or a meteoric fall. It's usually one or pretty fast.
00:17:33
Speaker 2: I've seen them happen before, and we have to what's going to happen to sean reminder. This is the guy who quit and was criticized for quitting a job that he took in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania as a police officer in a place they said they are down more than a dozen officers, and he left quit to go pursue this. I remember we talked about the mayor came out and said some pretty strong words, nothing too nasty, but talked about his disappointment in them doing so. I don't know. You go through all that and you look for the opportunity of a lifetime, and it was Robes. This is an opportunity to get picked for. This is a big deal. He gave up the job to do it.
00:18:12
Speaker 3: Maybe they'll bring him back with open arms because he.
00:18:15
Speaker 2: Hasn't been gone long.
00:18:16
Speaker 3: He hasn't been gone a long and he could bring a nice new spotlight to their small town.
00:18:20
Speaker 2: And several people did say that Robes, Yes, we hate, but we understand. People are talking about us, maybe curious about us, and this could this is the perfect ending to the Hey.
00:18:29
Speaker 3: You should embrace it, enjoy it, take the press, bring him back, let him do what he does. I think so too. I think so too. We'll see what happens. We'll follow up on Sean, but we hope he gets his job back as officer Sean what did he call him? Officer fancy pants? Sexy pan sexy pants, officer sexy pants. All right, and with that, everyone, we hope you enjoy listening to our Love Island episodes as much as we love watching the show. And with that, thank you everyone. I made me, Wrotebock alongside DJ Holmes. We'll talk to you soon.
00:19:00

A lot of women jumped on this one where he described catching fish as an analogy to basically catching women, saying, you can catch one, it's beautiful, you keep it, you put it in your freezer, and then you can catch another beautiful one, and they can both be beautiful, and they can both be in your freezer. And there's nothing wrong with that.
00:07:20
Speaker 2: Two fishes. I like it.
00:07:21
Speaker 3: Two fishes. So that was his analogy with you know, dating on Love Island and catching fish. And then he made another one.
00:07:28
Speaker 2: That the one you're like, you like a loh, we remember one just a little bit ago. I can not forget that one. But the one you're talking about had to do with rain and mud. He said it at the end, he said it on the couch, and after he said it, they actually said, wow with the metaphors. Huh yeah. But this one was he said, when you pray for rain, he also got to deal with the mud.
00:07:49
Speaker 3: So we just burst out laughing. He also talks because he likes to use his hands a lot. He also talked about how you know, Sincere, Heat and mel were sometimes in the same book, but they're just on different chapters, so we just start laughing. Like he constantly speaks in metaphors, so I'm waiting for them.
00:08:05
Speaker 2: The other one you forgot. The other one from school is like, you're the fastest guy.
00:08:09
Speaker 3: Oh cool, right, he was. He was comparing being on Love Island to when when the bombshell Gordon came in. He said, you know when you're like the fastest, you know, hottest guy on the track team, and then someone comes in and is faster than you, We're like, Wow, another brilliant metaphor. He's loaded. Just wait for it watching tonight basically, I'm here for it. I'm going to keep listening for the multiple metaphors coming out of since We should do.
00:08:32
Speaker 2: We should do a drinking game. That's a legit. Yeah, a metaphor drinking game with Sincere is not a bad idea.
00:08:37
Speaker 3: He has at least two or three per episode from what I've been gathering, that's not a bad idea. It's been fun. It's been fun. And then of course there was the big plot twist. We knew that the women early on were gonna get to pick, so that meant that we knew a guy was going to go home or at least be on the chopping block, and we knew the women had all the power. So now you get to see how everybody tries to up their game and see if they've got a girl who's gonna pick them. All of that, but then they do a plot twist and the new guy, the bombshell Corbyn gets to pick first, and Corbyn knows, but no one else. And so what do you make of Corbyn? What do you what's your takeaway from him?
00:09:14
Speaker 2: I was hoping he was just nervous in the first episode he was in and he would eventually have more to offer. He's maybe he's warming up. He's not there yet, but I need him to get a little a little chattier. I need him to uh, to show me a little more. I need him because right now, look, we could say what he's been talked about. His name is it as we said here Robes, is it still number one?
00:09:36
Speaker 3: Old number one. It's above way above the Knicks, It's above California, it's above Trump heading out of that interview at NBC with Kristen Welker. I mean, he is at the top of all trending news stories on X right now it is Corbyn. And what are they saying about Corbin?
00:09:54
Speaker 2: They don't think he's There's a lot going on upstairs, there are Look, the funny one that I saw was someone suggesting that he doesn't ever put together full sentences, like he'll just say things like your eyes I just fuck. And once they pointed it out, I was laughing.
00:10:16
Speaker 3: Now you're like waiting for him to complete one sentence and you're still waiting.
00:10:20
Speaker 2: Well, look, they're not. He's not okay. He's not being talked about as the most brilliant person in the villa right now. No, that's fine, but he can warm up and it's no. Maybe he's not a good conversation list.
00:10:35
Speaker 3: You're right, maybe he's nervous. He does seem to be operating out of one playbook though, because he was asking kept trying to get more kisses, like we need another kissing scene. So he's you know, playing cute with Kenzie, saying I really need to kind of remember what our kiss was like, maybe you can refresh my memory. So she jumps in and kisses him, and then he tries the same thing with Kita. Got to get props to Cada, she refused. She's like, did you just are you just doing out with all the girls, And she thought maybe that might help her chance of him picking her, because ultimately he did get to pick, but her hard to get did not work out well for her. In fact, Kenzie Kenzie was his first choice. We knew it was between Kensi and Kada, and at the end I thought he was going to go with Kada.
00:11:18
Speaker 2: She gave him a cold enough shoulder. He seemed to not be that interested in getting to know what you have to offer. On the inside, he is very much and has made clear how into physically he is everybody right now. So Kaita gave him a cold shoulder. I think he felt. I think he got it, and I think he knows she's got it. You know, she made it clear. I got Zach right now we're coupled up. I'm open to conversations, but she made pretty clear what she wanted.
00:11:47
Speaker 3: She thought, hard to get my work, though.
00:11:50
Speaker 2: I don't know about that. She I don't know, you know what she was growing on me when she said to him. You know what, man, let's just slow down for a second. Don't just want to dot That was a good way to go. I said, Okay, she's grown on me. Then she went into the confessional and did some old sounding.
00:12:05
Speaker 3: I play hard to guess. Maybe that'll work in my benefit, Yain. It's like all strategy, all strategy. It wasn't just her, you know, being an adult about it. No, not at all. But when we come back, we are going to tell you who the new couples are, what we think of them, and all Sean went home. We welcome back everyone to our Love Island, episode five edition of Amy and DJ. And look, we've got the new couples. Most of them are pretty much the same as they were before. The only new couple we have right now is Corbyn and Kenzie. Correct.
00:12:48
Speaker 2: You know that was a dramas show last night. Yeah, and that's okay. At the end, there was no mystery about it.
00:12:54
Speaker 3: It was not a nail biter. Never did I think that Trinity except for maybe one split second by the way she was building up. But like obviously she and Bryce were hitting it off, so why would she make a left turn and go for Sean. It didn't make a lot of sense. But I wonder I always want to do the producers help them write that so that it is she gave just enough of an opening that she could have been talking about Sean like new conversations more like it made it seem like I was like, no, she wouldn't possibly throw Bryce to the current.
00:13:26
Speaker 2: That seemed like that had could That's the hand of a writer.
00:13:29
Speaker 3: That seemed like producers got involved.
00:13:31
Speaker 2: Because she said a couple of lines. Even it looked like Bryce was confused.
00:13:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was like, wait, who is she talking about?
00:13:36
Speaker 2: Yeah? So, and fine, it's not the end of the world. But are they allowed because so many of them they seem to have the exact same tone. Yes, but they also seem to go the exact same length, they follow the same art. Yeah, maybe they give them somewhat instructions. But if someone allowed to say, oh, you pick who you want and just get up. Come on, y'all know I'm about to y'all know I'm about to kick pick my boys act, get on over his act and just leave it.
00:14:00
Speaker 3: And obviously they know their order. So when you're the last one, they always wanted to be dramatic, So I'm wondering if they give you some just some helpful suggestions on how to craft your I chose this boy to couple up with because also okay, So here are the couples Corbyn and Kenzie, Anaya and Casey, Melanie and Sincere, Kada and Zach, Beatrice, Beatrice and Gabrielle, Trinity and Bryce. Hands down your favorite. I think we all agree in this house favorite couple. Oh yeah, still Anny in case Anaya in Casey trying.
00:14:36
Speaker 2: Somebody was starting to grow on me. I like Bryce and Trinity. I do too, I like more so because of Bryce, like he's growing on Trinity is cool. Cada and Zach, they kind of makes it. Melanie and Sincere, I think.
00:14:53
Speaker 3: They're on again. I mean, they have had some drama already, but they seem to be back in good spirits together, happy to be with one another.
00:15:02
Speaker 2: She had a bad episode, okay, off that couple and his kindergarten energy is.
00:15:09
Speaker 3: With the metaphors de jure. I can't wait to hear what we're gonna hear tonight. But I also thought it was funny because look, maybe it's not funny. But as Sean was leaving, I saw some people online kind of throwing Kenzie some shade because her big thing to him was I'm really gonna miss your food, like girl, come on like. But he did make heart shaped eggs for her and she seemed to really, really really like them.
00:15:33
Speaker 2: But in the conversation at the end, she did seem like she was, you know what, she seemed like she knew she was responsible for him leaving versus because they didn't. They didn't seem to have a heads up that somebody was going home.
00:15:42
Speaker 3: No, And but she did say that she was going to pick Corbyn, that she was not going to pick Sean. That was the big that was the only question mark if it had just been in the hands of the women, if they hadn't given the power to Corbyn to stay like they basically producers guaranteed he got to stay by giving him the first choice. But if Kenzy had gotten to pick, that was the only big question mark. What's she going to pick Sean or what's she going to pick Corbyn? And she claims that she was going to pick Corbyn.
00:16:09
Speaker 2: But they made sure, didn't they that the that the new dude that everybody well had loved when before he.
00:16:16
Speaker 3: Started to talk, Well, what they know what they're doing because he's the number one trend. It's interesting you would think Sean would be the number one trend because he got kicked off, but no, the number one trend is Corbyn. Look, he might, we might. You might be able to turn your TV down, the volume down and just look. And he's nice to look at and so that might be a lot of what the draw is I'm given them.
00:16:37
Speaker 2: But the draw of the conversation, at least around him is not having to do and I'm shocked. It's not about how good he looks.
00:16:44
Speaker 3: It's about how he just.
00:16:46
Speaker 2: Hasn't He hasn't had a lot to say yet. We don't know him well yet. I'm sure he'll open up.
00:16:49
Speaker 3: He's a man of few words, man of few sentences, at least complete ones. But you know what, there is more time because we get another episode tonight, the oh yeah, three new bombshells. We should point that out. It's two women and one guy, right, yes, yes, I believe that's what it is. And of course they always flipped this around. Not sure when the next recoupling will be, but certainly they do this, They flip it so this next time the men will be the ones choosing, and so the women will have to be fighting for their other half to choose them. So they always keep it interesting.
00:17:24
Speaker 2: How do bomb shows usually do?
00:17:26
Speaker 3: It depends some of them. It's either they have a meteoric rise or a meteoric fall. It's usually one or pretty fast.
00:17:33
Speaker 2: I've seen them happen before, and we have to what's going to happen to sean reminder. This is the guy who quit and was criticized for quitting a job that he took in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania as a police officer in a place they said they are down more than a dozen officers, and he left quit to go pursue this. I remember we talked about the mayor came out and said some pretty strong words, nothing too nasty, but talked about his disappointment in them doing so. I don't know. You go through all that and you look for the opportunity of a lifetime, and it was Robes. This is an opportunity to get picked for. This is a big deal. He gave up the job to do it.
00:18:12
Speaker 3: Maybe they'll bring him back with open arms because he.
00:18:15
Speaker 2: Hasn't been gone long.
00:18:16
Speaker 3: He hasn't been gone a long and he could bring a nice new spotlight to their small town.
00:18:20
Speaker 2: And several people did say that Robes, Yes, we hate, but we understand. People are talking about us, maybe curious about us, and this could this is the perfect ending to the Hey.
00:18:29
Speaker 3: You should embrace it, enjoy it, take the press, bring him back, let him do what he does. I think so too. I think so too. We'll see what happens. We'll follow up on Sean, but we hope he gets his job back as officer Sean what did he call him? Officer fancy pants? Sexy pan sexy pants, officer sexy pants. All right, and with that, everyone, we hope you enjoy listening to our Love Island episodes as much as we love watching the show. And with that, thank you everyone. I made me, Wrotebock alongside DJ Holmes. We'll talk to you soon.
